...See more Sharing Circle Campfire We aim to create an environment like a campfire circle, where everyone sits around the fire and takes turns to share something on their mind. Everyone else offers support and encouragement rather than advice, questions and opinions. You can read more about how the Sharing Circle room works here: https://tinyurl.com/Sharing-Circles  ------------------------- Shoutout to our assigned hosts: @CalmRosebud and @ShadowFaerie And our on-spot hosts: @daydreammemories @disneywoman @fruityPond7887 @HeartsandRosesandPaws @InsightfulPhoenix @kindhug676 If you are interested in becoming a host, comment below and I will reach out to you 😊 ------------------------- Comment with your drink and snack of choice for the campfire and tag a friend!

Thank you so much for holding space, being such a great active listener, and helping me raise my spirits and shift my perspective to being more positive. Listening to someone else's troubles seems like such a simple thing, but it can really be so powerful and meaningful to the person. Thank you again!
Very understanding
When I was in distress and was looking for a listener in a community room, Lou73, offered her helping ears to me. She listened to all of my issues patiently and actively, understood it without any judgements & gave lots of empathy , compassion and good suggestions. She didn't show any rush to end the chat and talked to me for more than an hour. I felt better and satisfied after the conversation with Lou. Thanks a lot for being a wonderful, sweet listener and an amazing person. Stay blessed.
Lou helped give me the courage to host a Sharing Circle session- they encouraged me and gave me the resources to do it right, and for that, I’m super thankful!
Lou73 is an amazing listener!!! Highly recommend
